"I can tell you simply, fights between sportsmen occur, there is nothing unusual but since we are both UFC fighters, it has become a big news. Yesterday I faced to face with Nate Diaz at the tournament, and he was the first to start verbal exchanges and then a scuffle.

As I am a professional fighter, I was patient until the end because I have a credo not to fight wh ere a lot of people, especially there was a live broadcast of the tournament WSOF on TV. My words may confirm the large number of witnesses; I do not want to describe all the details.

We'll see what comes next. I've already asked for a battle with him at UFC bosses, but judging by the speed as Diaz ran, it's hard to believe that our bout will take place."- in instagram Nurmagomedov wrote.
